It's mostly from rightwing troglodytes excoriating Dems for selling 'Murrica out to Osama bin Laden. What Dems are not saying -- wisely, IMO -- is that Bush is the devil, that he's the worst president in American history, that he should be impeached and sent in chains to the Hague, etc., etc.

All of which I happen to believe are true, but which I also acknowledge would kill Dems' chances to win in November. And that's precisely because such remarks are so inflammatory that they eliminate reasoned, "professional" debate over issues, which still remains the gold standard (unfortunately much debased in the current political environment).
